Electrochemically induced free solvent transfer in thin poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) films

2015

International audience; In dynamic intrinsically conducting films, counterions transfer and conformational movements stimulated by the electrochemical reactions affect the free water molecules transfer. Poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) or PEDOT is included in this category. Here, p-doping of PEDOT immersed in LiClO4 aqueous solution was explored by ac-electrogravimetry. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy combined with mass impedance spectroscopy proves useful for species identification and kinetics. For PEDOT, new equations have been developed to analyze the ac -electrogravimetry response. Quantitatively, faster free water transfer and slower coupled View the MathML sourceClO4−/free wat…
